An already small real-world performance gap will get smaller.

But more powerful hardware is still more powerful hardware!

This is another misconception i see on our forums...

If the gap between PS4 and X1 is small then how would you describe the gap between PS3 and 360?

There are some games on X1 that is running at HALF the resolution than on PS4...thats pretty crazy.

At the end of the day Sony has ~30 - 50% more gpu physically with near linear scaling. That is anything but a "small real-world performance gap". Quite literally its the difference between buying a low ranged gpu to a mid ranged gpu. Theres approximately $50 - $100 retail difference between the gpu's in these consoles.

Its not a misconception at all.  Real-world directly implies visually perceptable.

And there is a barely visuably perceptible difference between these two consoles when measured by any reasonable person that isn't approaching them wiht a fine-tooth comb and an agenda.

It is absolutely a misconception. Real-world performance directly implies to what is measurable not what is "visually perceivable". We are speaking about system peformance here not peoples opinions. System performance is measurable.
